![]() Knight Rider fans all know we owe everything to The Dukes of Hazzard and we hope we don't get banned for associating with the KKK or democrat party if you please.

![]() This proves what idiotic, fickle, bandwagon hopping, ignorant sheep people really are.

The confederate flag was ignored 100% of the time. No one acknowledged it, no one was demanding it be pulled down, no one was climbing flag poles tearing it down, nothing. Then one random racist kid goes on a mass shooting spree that just so happened to have a bunch of pictures of himself with the confederate flag. Then of course people being people decided to hop on a bandwagon with faux outrage and demand change in the most irrelevant places whilst ignoring the bigger problems. It's like that with gun control. It's ignored the vast majority of the time, let a mass shooting happen, it get's sensationalized by the media then you have a bunch of bored people with fake outrage chiming in on subjects they know little to nothing about demanding gun control. How we went from a racist guy shooting people in a church to pulling a 30 year old TV show because it had a car with the flag painted on it is fucking mind blowing. I despise bandwagon topics and the people that hop on them. Ill-informed, fake outrage and parroting what the other ill-informed morons are saying. A month from now people will forget all about it and move on..It happens every time. The fact that people instantly go on the popular opinion side proves how much of a fad it is. |

![]() As someone posted on facebook, The Jeffersons uses the word Honky to describe white folks a lot and doesn't get pulled from TV Land. Why no double standard?

![]() It is sort of in vogue to poke fun at and use semi-inflammatory terms about anglo folks, anyone else, not so much so. Some have pointed out that NAACP is ok, an corresponding NAAWP would be problematic. There actually was one, but it was run by David Duke a former KKK member. Martin Mull did a funny film or pilot or something called The History (or was it dumb history) of White People in America. It was funny, irreverent, no big deal.

![]() But, try that with any other race/culture, and see what happens.

![]() It is true that there is in fact a double standard. George Jefferson will call white people honky and no one says anything. The Jeffersons has not been pulled nor has Sanford and Sons which often makes fun of white people and Latinos. In fact the other day Fred Sanford described Puerto Ricans as having diseases, being ignorant and uneducated, being social climbers and a bunch of other offensive things. His character says worst thing about another minorities etc. Yet Sanford and Son has not been pulled. (nor do I think it should be it is just a TV show). Now I happen to be Latino but I realize that it is just a show, it is comedy. I have a thick skin. People are allowed to voice their opinion we have that right, no matter how silly mean or foolish it is. But I am not a fan of the double standard. Rappers can scream at how much they hate white people (which is in fact racist) but no one says that, they call Latinos brown (I personally hate that if African Americans don't want to be referred to as black why is it okay for them to refer to Latinos as Brown?) and call women just horrible things I wouldn't call someone I hated and no one says anything. African Americans can yell the n word all they want no one says anything. Should someone not African American say it, they want to assault them or call them racist or assault them or vilify them. Someone saying something you perceive to be insensitive or racist does not give you the right to assault them. Its kind of sociopathic to say hey you can't say this word but I can and if you do say it you risk me assaulting you. And for the record I grew up in lower economic circumstances in New York, (you can say projects or ghetto that's okay) amid people of all cultures and colors and guess what word my friends used to call me you guessed it the N word. My friends, uncles, cousins, hell my friends parents would call me the n word. Hell even my mom would even say it to me when she got made at me. It was a word of greeting not a word of hate. Like saying what's up bro. And I will let everyone in on a little secret you know who are some of the most racist people on earth, you guessed it people of color. So can we just stop the finger pointing, the double standard and all of this race nonsense. A show is just a show, we all have the right to free speech, we are all you just human beings trying to find our place in this world and we are all brothers and sisters no matter what the color of our skin.

![]() Not only a black car but a gay black car which gets entered by a huge white man in every episode. We'll say nothing about the huge white guy jumping the gay black car either.
